DESCRIPTION

My Confirmation Journal offers young people a secure place in which to record personal reflections about their spiritual growth. Each chapter in the journal corresponds loosely to a chapter in the Young People’s Book. Thought-provoking questions, works of fine art, Scripture passages, and more inspire each student to express the uniqueness of his or her maturing faith through writing, reflecting, and praying.

prayerPrayer to the Holy Spirit

Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful.

And kindle in them the fire of your love.

Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created.

And you shall renew the face of the earth.

Let us pray:

O God, by the light of the Holy Spirit you have taught the

hearts of your faithful. In the same Spirit, help us to know

what is truly right and always to rejoice in your consolation.

We ask this through Christ, Our Lord.

Amen.
